What were some problems during the Renaissance.

Question

I am supposed to make an invention to help people during the renaissance.

Answer 1

The first problem that comes to mind is the lice and fleas that inhabited people. How could you stop this?

Although ancient Romans had some forms of central heating -- both for rooms and for water in the baths, most people in Renaissance Europe didn't have this kind of "luxury."
